Fall Thoughts & New Friends For You To Meet

As Thanksgiving is upon us… I wanted to tell each & every one of you how very special you are to me!!! I have met some of the most AMAZING, SWEET, TALENTED, friends through my blog & the Art Events I have gone to in this past year! In January I chose the word KNOWLEDGE as my word for 2010. WOW what knowledge I have gained. What a wonderful year I have had!!!!

One thing I have wanted to learn is how to use Photoshop Elements & do digital collage work. That has not happened. I did take one class from Mendy at Paper Cowgirls but, I have not practiced what she taught us. SHAME ON ME!! But, I will get to that I promise. So today I wanted to share the beautiful work above done by a new friend Jill & you can find her at Feathers & Flight. She participates in a weekly digital challenge each Monday & always has a wonderful piece to share. Go visit her! And the piece above has been her banner for the fall season. I LOVE IT! Jill I hope to one day be as talented as you!

So many of you dazzle me with your photos, creations, beautiful homes, & you bring me such pleasure & fill me with ideas & inspiration. THANK YOU! May you be blessed as you have blessed. I LOVE all of you sweet Blog/Art Friends. Count your blessing & share them here if you feel like it.

I am so Grateful that our Paths Crossed and I Now have a Most Wonderful Friend!Happy Thanksgiving to You and your Family!Many Blessing to You Sweet Friend!HugsJill

Charlene I can do all of this and have about 8 years experience using Paint Shop Pro which is very similar to Photoshop. However since I now have an iMac this will not work for me so I switched to Photoshop Elements and I struggle with that, like you I haven't practiced enough. I need to find some tutorials, and to think I used to be a tutorial writer in PSP for groups.

Hello Charlene! I hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday! What a lovely post. If you want some placecard tags that I designed for last year's Thanksgiving, I've made them available again on my blog.

Charlene, Thanks so much for dropping by my blog. I am a big fan of Diane, she is an amazing artist and woman. I'm so glad to meet you and love your blog as well and eagerly became a follower, you have a new fan. Let me know if you find a good on line photoshop program. I would love to learn that talent as well. I look forward to enjoying your many talents and seeing all your future work.

My dearest of friends, I've said this publicly and privately; you are a true friend and I am so thankful that our paths crossed. 2010 would never have been the same if it were not for you and our amazing friendship. Can't wait for more CSI adventures!
